Multicenter, randomized open label clinical trial to evaluate IEM and HS as concomitant therapy for respiratory tract infection in patients under artificial ventilation in the ICU. Lung infection is a serious complication that may occur during hospital stay and may need artificial respiration or even develop during artificial ventilation for other causes. Current specific treatment consists of intravenous antibiotics. The current study evaluated whether aspiration and drainage of infected sputum helps curing this severe complication and whether nebulized HS has additional benefits, like eradicating bacteria or reducing inflammation.
This clinical trial aims to compare the effects of lidocaine, dexmedetomidine, esmolol, and magnesium on optic nerve sheath diameter and hemodynamic response to laryngoscopy. The participants will be patients determined to need intubation and general anesthesia for any elective surgery. Each participant will receive either lidocaine, dexmedetomidine, esmolol, magnesium, or none before anesthesia induction, according to randomization. The investigator will measure the optic nerve sheath diameter by ultrasonography before and after intubation. Researchers will compare the difference between optic nerve sheath diameter, systolic blood pressure, and heart rate before and after laryngoscopy and search for the most stable group. The trial aims to determine a general anesthesia induction protocol for patients sensitive to intracranial pressure changes reflected as optic nerve sheath diameter for easy monitoring.
Endotracheal intubation is a frequent procedure in the operating room but optimal Macintosh blade size remains unknown to date.
This study aims to prospectively evaluate the relationship between changes in EEG and hormonal responses induced by endotracheal intubation and surgical incision following general anesthesia.
In this study, the investigators aim to compare the incidence of cuff pressure increase between endotracheal tubes inflated with air or saline during elective laparoscopic abdominal surgery under general anesthesia with N2O. This prospective observational study will be conducted on 60 patients aged 18-65 with ASA physical status I-II undergoing elective laparoscopic abdominal surgery under general anesthesia. Patients are randomly assigned to two groups: one group has tubes inflated with air (Group H, n=30), while the other group has tubes inflated with saline (Group S, n=30). The cuff pressure is continuously monitored using a pressure transducer attached to the cuff via a three-way tap. Anesthesia maintenance is achieved with sevoflurane and oxygen/N2O (%40/%60) in both groups. The intervention is performed whenever the cuff pressure exceeds 20 mmHg for >30 seconds during the CO2 insufflation of the abdomen, and the pressure is reduced. The number of interventions is recorded as the primary outcome of the study. The cuff pressure is measured before and after insufflation and after the patients are placed in Trendelenburg and reverse Trendelenburg positions.
The investigators intend to compare the group using triple-cuffed endobronchial tube (VentiBroncTM Anchor) with the group using the conventional double-lumen endotracheal tube (Shiley®) in patients at high risk of malposition of the double-lumen endotracheal tube. The aim of this study is to determine if the use of VentiBroncTM Anchor increases the success rate of optimal double-lumen intubation to left main bronchus.
The goal of this [ randomized clinical trial] is to [effect of different head positions on the incidence of postoperative sore throat ] in [patients with endotracheal intubation ]. The main question it aims to answer is: the rate of postoperative sore throat will be reduced or not with the patients' head position changed during intubation.
The manipulations required during airway management and the different methods of establishing an airway (endotracheal intubation, supraglottic airway device etc) during anesthesia, as well as certain drugs used during anesthesia and sedation, may have an impact to the stomatognathic system. These effects can vary from a subtle temporomandibular joint disc displacement with reduction to the onset of temporomandibular disorders to previously healthy subjects.This observational prospective study aims at investigating the effect of different methods of airway management during anesthesia on the stomatognathic system (including temporomandibular joint, mastication muscles, occlusion etc).
Nowadays endotracheal intubation is considered a fundamental management procedure during emergency resuscitation. Unrecognized misplacement of the ETT during endotracheal intubation and ventilation, has a reported incidence of 2.9-16.7% and is a frequent cause of morbidity and mortality in emergency intubations. The aim of this study is to determine the diagnostic accuracy of the tracheal, diaphragmatic and sonographic estimation of lung sliding for the rapid verification of endotracheal tube position in the intensive care unit (RICU) with reference to Co₂ monitors (capnography) (the gold standard technique)
